Abstract :

In order to market any medical device, marketing authorization from Regulatory authority is required. The process of gaining authorization is complex, multistep and requires review of information by competent authorities. Upon scrutinizing the information furnished by Manufacturer, marketing authorization is granted by the concerned Regulatory authority. In the USA, manufacturers are required to apply to United States Food and Drugs Application (USFDA) for Marketing Authorization. There are two types of applications in USA; 510 (k) and Pre-Market Application (PMA). In EU, National Authorities give approval for marketing medical devices. A system of third party compliance is followed, where Notified Bodies (Third Party) ensure Quality Assurance, pre and post approval. In India, Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) approves devices for sale and import. Medical Devices are regulated under CLAA scheme. The Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) is the central licensing authority for medical devices. This paper attempts to capture information on regulations of Medical Device in three regions namely; USA, EU and India and compare provisions of Market authorization in the respective regions, and further, for the readers, make this complex subject easier to grasp.
Keywords: In vitro diagnostics, Indian regulations, medical device regulations, medical device rules 2017, medical devices.
